March 2024 | Hot Market Update: 3BR Sales Soar 20.80% in Hoboken🚀

     



3BR sales in Hoboken increased by 20.80% as low inventories continue to drive pricing.

Pending sales increased for both Hoboken and downtown Jersey City. The increase is an indicator of increased sales in the upcoming 30-60 days.

Properties are still moving quickly and still selling over asking in many cases.


Hoboken

The big news for Hoboken is that 3BR sales increased to $1036.97/sq. ft. 
We haven't been over $1000/sq. ft. since July '23

4BR units performed equally as well at $1037.23/sq. ft. 

2BR sold well at $906.48/sq. ft. while the absorption rate remained steady at 7.89 weeks of inventory.
In Hoboken, sales remain robust with all market segments well over $800/sq. ft.



Downtown Jersey City

The big news for downtown Jersey City is that total sales increased 70% to 51 units.  This increase in sales helped lower the pace of sales 43.57% to 16.23 weeks.

3BR condos increased 47.29% to $898.52/sq. ft. after an uncharacteristically low performance last month.

February Real Estate News | Big Changes Ahead for downtown Jersey City?

    


Hoboken continues to stay firmly in seller's market territory at 7.80 weeks of inventory, while downtown Jersey City slips ever closer to buyer's market territory at 28.76 weeks of inventory.

A buyer's market takes place when inventory is at least 32 weeks.

Hoboken

The big news for Hoboken is that pending sales shot up 58.21% to 106 units.  This is a good indication that demand is strong and will certainly help keep the market.

Pricing remains robust with all market segments well over $800/sq.ft.


Downtown Jersey City

The big news for January is that the pace of sales increased 16.16% to 28.76 weeks. Pending sales did increase 20% to 120 units, which should help to stabilize/lower the absorption rate in the upcoming weeks.

This lingering inventory has helped ease up demand and in turn caused 1BR prices to drop this month and 2BR prices to show a modest increase.

JAN '24 REAL ESTATE REPORT

   




It's been a solid start to 2024, but there are some slowdowns taking place, especially in downtown Jersey City.

Hoboken

The big news for January is that the pace of sales was up 82.88% to 8.12 weeks. Still firmly in seller's market territory, but a big jump nonetheless.


Downtown Jersey City

The big news for January is that the pace of sales increased 41.08% to 24.76 weeks. Still in seller's market territory, but getting closer to becoming a buyer's market, which would happen at 32 weeks.

This lingering inventory has helped ease up demand and in turn caused 1BR and 2BR prices to drop this month.

2023 Year End Summary



In a year plagued with high mortgage rates we still had a record-breaking year in many categories.

The continued dynamic of lower inventory coupled with high demand drove prices to record levels.

The increasing rents that we are experiencing in the area also continues to convert renters into buyers.

Now with mortgage rates easing there have been predictions that the market will continue its strength into 2024.

And now...off to the charts!

Days on market in Hoboken dropped 13.33% to 26 days which is the lowest level I've seen since I started recording data in 2009.

Days on market in downtown Jersey City dropped 2.94% to 33 days which is the lowest I've seen since 2017.




Total transactions for Hoboken are down a significant 37.17% to 568 units. This is the lowest level I have seen since I started recording data in 2009.

Downtown Jersey City is down 29.07% to 505 units. This is the lowest level I have seen since 2012.



Hoboken 1BR, 2BR and 4BRprices were at all-time highs for 2023.

December Real Estate Update | ALL-TIME HIGHS! 2023 ENDS STRONG

   




I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season!

The Hoboken and downtown Jersey City markets ended 2023 on a strong note!


Hoboken

The big news for December is that 2BR condos hit an all-time high of $924.77/sq.ft.

The continued lack of inventory coupled with strong demand and lower interest rates is fueling the market.


Downtown Jersey City

The big news for December is that 1BR and 2BR units hit all-time highs.  1BR units reached $888.74/sq.ft. while 2BR units reached $959.30/sq.ft.


There is speculation that pricing will remain strong in 2024 now that mortgage rates are dropping and more buyers are re-entering the market.

Nov Update | 1BR Hits All-Time High

  



Wishing everyone a joyous holiday season and a prosperous New Year!

Mortgage rates are finally starting to come down!


Hoboken

The big news for November is that 1BR condos hit an all-time high of $923.09/sq.ft.

Lower inventory with increased demand was one of the driving factors in this.

Day on the market remained at 19 days which is 34.48% lower than this time last year.


Downtown Jersey City

The big news for November is that total sales dropped 30.77% to 36 units.  As is evidenced by the absorption rate increasing 22.74% to 20.46 weeks, sales are moving a little slower in downtown Jersey City at the moment.  

Pricing remains steady, except for 3BR condos which is always volatile.
